Location is the position of places and people on earth. Location can be described into two ways which is absolute and relative location. Absolute location is not anything more than a simple point regularly recognized on a grid of the surface of the earth named a coordinate. Latitude and longitude can be used to identify a location. The absolute location of new orleans is 30 degrees north and 90 degrees west. However, relative location is the correlation of a place to other places. New orleans is situated at the place somewhere the mississippi river clears into the gulf of mexico which provides it easy right of entry to ocean and river shipping.

17 X y3z12 ? I would imagine 17 being the coefficient. I could be wrong because I don't quite understand the equation.

An important application of regression analysis in accounting is in the estimation of cost. By collecting data on volume and cos

Amanda [17]

Answer:

Y = 7.60X + 1246.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Production Volume (units) Total Cost ($)

400 4000

450 5000

550 5400

600 5900

700 6400

750 7000

Using technology, the linear regression calculator, the regression model obtained by fitting the data is :

Y = 7.60X + 1246.67 ; which is the model giving the relationship between Production volume, x and total cost, y.

Slope = 7.60

Intercept = 1246.67

Find a side of an equilateral triangle with a 12 inch altitude

saveliy_v [14]

Since the triangle is an equilateral triangle we know all of it's sides must be the same length, with that in mind the angles that make up the triangle must be equal as well. Knowing that a triangle's three interior angles make up 180 degrees we know that the size of each angle must be one third of this (as each angle must be equal).

180/3 = 60

then we may split the triangle along it's altitude into two special right triangles
more specifically two 30-60-90 triangles.

this means that the side with 30 degrees will be some value "x" where the side for 60 degrees will be related as it is "x*sqrt(3)" and the hypotenuse (which would be the side of the triangle) would be proportionally "2x"

this would mean that the altitude is the side associated with the 60 degree angle as such we can solve for "x" using this.

12= x*sqrt(3)
12/sqrt(3)=x
4sqrt(3)=x (simplifying the radical we get "x" equals 4 square root 3)

now we may solve for the side length of the triangle which is "2x"

2*4sqrt(3) -> 8sqrt (3)

eight square root of three is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

since the house, the school and the grocery store all have the same x coordinate (-4), they are on the same vertical line of x = -4.

and that means their distances are simply the differences in their y coordinates.

the only one different in that regard is the community center, but it is on the same y coordinate as the school, so the distance to the school is only the difference in their x coordinates.

so, the distance from house to school is

|5 - 3| = |3 - 5| = 2

as it is the same distance in either direction.

the distance from house to school to grocery store is the distance from house to school plus the distance from school to grocery store :

2 + |3 - -9| = 2 + |-9 - 3| = 2 + 12 = 14

now we need to find the distance from home to school to community center.

that is 2 + the distance from school to community center.

as mentioned above, since the school and the community center have the same y coordinate, their distance is the difference in their x coordinates :

|-4 - 6| = |6 - -4| = 10

so, in total the way house to school to community center is 2 + 10 = 12.

and that is shorter than the way house to school to grocery store, which is 14.

so, yes, the distance house to school to grocery store (14) is greater than the distance house to school to community center (12).
